, Coinbase and other apps, was accused of collecting excessive financial data from consumers. While denying any wrongdoing, it agreed to pay $58 million to all consumers with a linked bank account to any of its approximately 5,000 client apps.
The lawsuit accused Plaid of collecting"more financial data than was needed from users." It also claimed that the company obtained users' bank login information via its own"Plaid Link" interface,"which had the look and feel of the user’s own bank account login screen," according to thewebsite. On top of the $58 million payout, the company was forced to change some of its business practices.
